One of the channels TLC, TDC, History I forget has run a survivalist
scenario show quite a bit. Interesting things there, as I recall it showed
the violent tendencies of big city people, the salvaging of the skilled and
surprisingly how single mothers and children will become some of the most
violent. One thing I remember the most was the need for medicine, esp
antibiotics. Panic is our demise and will bring the whole system down. But
after they kill each other off, the collected will emerge and provide the social
network or civilization mankind mentally needs. Storing food and water is a
futile point if it becomes radiated, the question is how do we tell if its toxic.
